Nice workaround!
We do know of this limitation and are looking to try to address in future releases, btw.

Hah, I think I just found a way to do that. I'ts not perfect, but I can at least set a maximum to get some control on that. I can limit the maximum number of volumes an SVM can create with:
vserver modify -vserver vs1 -max-volumes 10
And with the following rule, I can disallow the creation of a volume > 10G:
security login role create -vserver vNFS_440019_onepanel01 -role restricted -cmddirname "volume" -access all -query "-size <=10G"
Creation of a volume with size 10G: vNFS_440019_onepanel01::> vol create -aggregate superion_data -size 10g -volume test1 vNFS_440019_onepanel01::> vol show Vserver Volume Aggregate State Type Size Available Used% --------- ------------ ------------ ---------- ---- ---------- ---------- ----- vNFS_440019_onepanel01 test1 superion_data online RW 10GB 9.50GB 0%
11G: vNFS_440019_onepanel01::> vol create -aggregate superion_data -size 11g -volume test2
Error: command failed: not authorized for that command
Trying to resize the previously created 10G volume to 11G: vNFS_440019_onepanel01::> vol size -volume test2 -new-size +1g
Error: command failed: not authorized for that command
Not perfect, but better than nothing.

No, there is not a way to do that.

Hey there,
due to popular demand, I'm currently playing around with the trident integration and am following the docs here: https://netapp-trident.readthedocs.io/en/stable-v18.07/docker/install/ndvp_o...
From what I can see, there's no easy way to limit the total amount of volume space created from within the SVM.
I can limit the amount of volumes that can be created, but I cannot limit the maximum total size of those - or is there any option to do that?
I just want to make sure that none of these clients are using more resources than assigned (without having to assign dedicated aggregates). Is that possible?
Thanks,
